Still Life


Still Life influenced by Sir Anthony Van Dyck, Nicholas Poussin and Jean Honore Fragonard.



James and I managed to get our still life image taken on the 5 x 4 Camera before the end of term; this is my effort. Unfortunately I am only now beginning to research for this assignment and I know that if I had been motivated to do this first, my still life would have looked a lot different. I'm having to work backwards which is not really a good idea. I'm thinking I might own up to this in my sketch book as having now researched some artists, I'm finding some really interesting stuff!! If I had realised before the tutorial that we could take an image in the landscape, instead of in the studio, I would have done that. Its probably my own fault for not reading the brief carefully enough.

Anyway onwards and upwards as they say .... !
